The Fayette County woman was reported missing by her son back in October.

Police are investigating the case as a homicide.

The woman whose arm was found by campers along the riverbank was brutally murdered and then dismembered.

It was back on Oct. 25 when Massey's left arm was found by a group of fishermen that were collecting firewood.

But because the arm from the shoulder to the fingertips was in such poor condition, it would take the Kentucky State Police crime lab weeks to lift a print and make a positive ID.

The identification was made on Thursday.

But on Monday, just days after hikers discovered a human torso near the river on the Jessamine-Madison County line, comparison testing was done and it was discovered the two parts were from the same body.

“I thought we have got a break, we've got a good positive break here in this so were going to be able to move on here. And when it matched up that was the break we needed,” said Henry County coroner Jimmy Pollard.

Massey's son, the one to report her missing, has since been incarcerated.

On Friday, morning a deputy informed him of these latest tragic developments.

The investigation into Massey's death is being handled by authorities in Fayette County where that missing persons report was filed.
